""Working at Real Madrid is turning out to be what I expected, a very demanding job," said Alonso."
Xabi Alonso says he is enjoying life as Real Madrid coach while facing criticism and mounting pressure. Real Madrid are winless in their last three matches across all competitions, including a 2-2 draw with Elche and a recent Champions League loss to Liverpool. The team currently sits seventh in the league standings. The next match is away to Olympiacos, a tie that could prove difficult as Madrid have never won there in four previous attempts. Only AC Milan (seven away matches without a win) has been faced more than four times away without a Madrid victory.
